I couldn't recommend Pippas house nursery more. My son has been to two settings, claygate and Esher. The staff and facilities at both have been amazing. The staff went over and above for us when we started, making the transition going back to work after maternity a lot better. Esher our current nursery,
the facilities are incredible, watching our son enjoy the space and learn in a safe environment is amazing. The staff are warm, organised and make us feel so relaxed knowing he's safe and cared for. Would recommend an have done to all local parents.

We couldn't be happier with this nursery! The staff are wonderful, really attentive, and always make learning fun. My daughter is picking up so much and developing new skills every day. The care she receives is exceptional, and the management team is by far the best I've seen since she started attending.
Highly recommend!

We highly recommend Dicky Birds. The staff are nurturing, committed and professional. The children are taken on outings on an almost daily basis and there are a variety of activities provided every day. Our younger child took a while to settle and the staff went above and beyond to help her feel at

I recommend this nursery and staff very highly.
My first child went to Kiddi Caru years ago which I then followed on my second son with a lot of needs. I knew from his first day this nursery will be the world of good for him. My son has done 2 years here and although his progress has been slow he has
learned so much with everyone who works here. I have had so much help and want to thank all the staff. I am very grateful for how much they actually care for my child

We love everything about Kiddi Caru! My daughter has always been very attached and found it really difficult leaving me at the beginning. The staff were so supportive to both of us and did everything they could to help her settle. Fast forward to now and she loves it, she's so much more confident now
and outgoing, the difference in her since she started has been amazing to watch. The outdoor space is lovely, the food is great and the children just always seem happy. My daughter loves telling me about everything she's been up to when we collect her, you can just see she's had a great time.

Our baby started in the baby room at Spencerswood Day Nursery in January, and we honestly couldn't be happier with how things have gone. From the very beginning, the staff made the whole transition so smooth and reassuring for both our baby and us as parents.
He settled in amazingly quickly, which we
really credit to the caring and attentive team. It's clear that they genuinely take the time to get to know each baby, their routines, and what makes them feel comfortable. Every day he arrives with a smile and leaves happy, which says everything about how well he's being looked after.
Before starting, we did wonder if the baby room being in the basement would make any difference, but it honestly doesn't at all. The room is bright, welcoming, and full of engaging activities, and most importantly our baby clearly has the best day there. He's always busy playing, learning, and interacting with the staff and other babies.
Thankyou spencerswood team :)

We went to Little Monkeys for our eldest daughter (now 6) and there was no question in our minds that we would do the same with our son (now 2). All the staff are so loving and genuine towards the children and make the parents feel as involved as they can be throughout their days at nursery. The variety
of food is exceptional and the level of care they provide is second to none. I trust all the staff there, including the management and office team implicitly. My son is so happy when he comes out after his time there and know he has had the best day enjoying all the activities they have done throughout. He can be a little upset at drop offs sometimes but the team do a great job in settling him and making him feel safe and calm. I would 100% recommend this nursery to anyone who is thinking about it. Thank you Little Monkeys!

My little boy currently attends the preschool after moving up from the nursery and previously my older son also attended both.
We love puddleduck preschool and so do both our sons! The activities always look fun and creative, he loves attending forest school, music classes, and playball! He is always
happily singing songs at home or in the car that he's learnt at nursery or talking about his friends.
Communication from the staff on the app is always clear, giving a great inside view to what they are learning and focusing on each week with a weekly newsletter.
The staff are engaging and welcoming at pick up and drop off and, my son is always happy to see them and clearly enjoys his action packed days there which I am very grateful for! Thank you!

Staff are attentive and caring with the children. My daughter started in the baby room and the staff there was amazing at taking care of her and helping her reach her milestones. The transition to the toddler has been a bit tricky. It feels busier and less quiet space. It's been difficult to understand
how the toddler room supports potty training in a structured manner.generally my daughter enjoys nursery and staff have a keen sense of kids' personalities but more clarity on how milestones are supported via the nursery days would be useful.
Reply from Charlie G, Nursery Support Team at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery and Preschool Crews HoleThank you for your review of Kiddi Caru Day Nursery and Preschool Crews Hole.

I could talk for hours about how much I love Head Start! My son thrived there and now my daughter is exactly the same. The staff are amazing - friendly, kind, supportive, very professional and experienced, and you can really see how much they genuinely care for the children. I feel 100% confident every
day that my daughter is in safe and loving hands. The activities, learning and development opportunities are fantastic - it's obvious that a huge amount of planning and work goes into giving the children the best experiences possible. There is also a real sense of community and belonging for the families, partly due to the extremely warm welcomes, updates and goodbyes we get from all the staff every day! The team recently held a children's first aid session for parents, with a qualified instructor, which was really impressive and helpful - and above and beyond any expectations! All in all, my child could not be happier and neither could I.

My child enjoys this nursery. They seem generally well taken care of and the activities offered, walks and visits seem to be estimulating.
For me the main area of improvement relates to food and drinks. I think less salt and sugar should be used when cooking for children this age, and portions seem
to be on the small side.
Management and staff have always been helpful and collaborating. I would reccommend the nursery overall.
